Conceived Through IUI And Had Miscarriage. TORCH Test Done And The Results Given. Given Spiramycin Tablets. Will This Treatment Help?

After taking fertility treatment for a long time, I conceived through IUI in June 2012. However, I had a miscarriage in Oct 2012. After that my doctor tried two IUI's and 1 IVF but all failed. After that, I consulted another infertility specialist and he asked me to do the TORCH test. The results of the the following were high.
TOXOPLASMA IGG 11.22
RUBELLA IGG 26.47
CYTOMEGALOVIRUS IGG 2.39

He hs prescribed Spiramycin tablets for the same to be taken for 20 days. And he has asked me for follow up on Sept 19th. Is it worth taking these tablets. Is this treatment worth it? Do I have any chance of getting pregnant again and is there any further risk for miscarriage?

Spiramycin has activity against Chlamydia trachomatis , Toxoplasma gondii.....
Toxoplasmosis (treatment)Spiramycin is used as an alternative agent in the treatment of toxoplasmosis during pregnancy. {10} Pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine combination is considered to be more effective than spiramycin .
however its side effects are little as compared to the other regimen.....yes you have optimum chances of pregnency after clearance of infection...
